    GREEN KEY GLOBAL, a sustainability certification body, recently launched Green Key Ready, an entry-level program for hotels starting their sustainability efforts or operating with limited resources. The program includes a fundamentals-based questionnaire and supporting materials to help properties prepare for full Green Key Eco-Rating certification. Green Key Ready is a step toward full certification, helping hotels meet initial sustainability requirements, Green Key Global said in a statement. Green Key Global is owned by the Hotel Association of Canada and the American Hotel & Lodging Association. "Sustainability is no longer an option-it's an expectation," said Anick Levesque, Green Key Global's managing director. "A year ago, AHLA and HAC strengthened their commitment to Green Key Global, marking a new chapter for sustainability in the hospitality industry. Since then, we've expanded our programs to better serve hotels at every stage of their journey. The launch of Green Key Ready is a direct result of that momentum."
